Signs Of Doomsday According To Major Religions

All the world’s great religions contain Messianic prophecies, which promise that God will one day send a Promised One whose teachings will unite all humanity.

The Promised One is called by different names by different religions. Jews look forward to a Prophet like Moses. Hindus look for the return of Krishna. Christians await the return of Christ. Muslims look for the appearance of Imam Mahdi as well as Christ. Buddhists await Buddha.

The fascinating aspect of all these prophecies is that they all seem to be pointing towards the same event.

All the major religions of the world have their own signs of Doomsday.

According to the Bible, there are twenty-one signs of Doomsday:

1. Israel, the fig tree, is budding and the generation that sees it shall not pass till all is fulfilled. 2. The son of perdition, the return of Jesus for his church, and rebuilding of the temple. 3.

Jesus Christ returns and the Mount of Olives splits in two for the battle of Armageddon.

Jews

These signs were said to have been given in the historical books of the Hebrews, and depict the fifteen days before doom:

1. All the water from the earth, including the seas will rice up to the clouds, above the mountains, so that the cry of the seals, the yelling of the sea-monsters and the roar of the whales will be on the dry strands after the water leaves them.

2. The huge noise of the water falling down again the next day into their proper places will be heard, so that it goes deep into the earth; and nobody knows where.

3. All the water will freeze in its place and become hard, and armies will march on this.

4. The sea-animals of the earth will rise up into the clouds, and will cry and clamour continuously for fear of the Day of Doom. None other but God will understand what they are saying.

5. All the birds on the earth will move continuously, without resting, and without eating any food or drinking anything.

6. Great rivers, with fiery and rough waves, will flow out of the firmament from sunrise to sunset.

7. A huge, scary, ugly and unbearable sound will be heard from the heaven, and there will be thunder with many lightnings. From the southern part of the sky, there will be seen a fiery red cloud rising and spreading all over all the earth, and crimson blood will pour from that cloud, and fill the earth – both the land and the sea. There will be huge fires over all parts of the globe, and the world will face a mighty earthquake with a huge spark rising from every part of the earth. The sea will also be ruthless on that day.

8. There will be an excessive tremor and all the creatures of the earth will be numb with fear. The waves of the sea will rise very high, and the ocean will be shaken from its very core with fiery winds. The thundering seas and the water against rivers of fire, with no pleasure, no music throughout the world will leave a sad and distressful feeling.

9. Each and every stone in this world, both small and big will break into four parts. These parts will talk to each other, and except for God, nobody else will understand their language. These stones will begin to tremble after losing their form. All the woods of the earth will be completely uprooted, after they have all broken on that day. Streams of sulphurous fire will rise from the earth so that the entire world is one single blaze of fire from sunrise to sunset.

10. All the stones and trees on the earth will be shedding blood. Rough winds will rise and the whole world will be shaken at once. All humans will be screaming, wailing, and crying, and pleading with the earth to open up for them, so that they do not have to witness all the evil. They would prefer to die rather than be alive at that moment. It is at that time that three hundred and sixty-five stars will fall on the earth. The mountains will fall and they will be on the same level as the ground.

11. Big thunders and the sound of four fiery winds from the four airts of heaven will make all the elements shrink and separate. Five thousand three hundred and sixty-five stars will fall on earth just as ripe fruits falling on a windy day. The moon will turn into the color of blood, the sun will grow dark, the mountains and all other structures will turn into ash. A horrendous screaming of the burning birds will be heard. Humans will face a sad, bitter, and heavy grief on that day. All mankind will kneel in front of God, praying for Him to save them from the fire of Doom.

12. All the lawless animals of the earth will have to leave their places, and be on the plains, howling and crying, with no food or clothing. Every person that has tasted life will die on that day and the whole world will be on fire and hail. Then the doors of the palace will open and the roar of the seven heavens will be heard at the coming of the Creator with His angels. The heaven’s angels will sing to the Creator to rescue them and the angels and the souls of the saints and the good people will be saved, so that the fire of Doom does not burn them.

13. All graves will open up and the dead will come out, and the world will be in grief, as there will be no place to live for the living or for the dead in this world.

14. All the living will die.

15. The final sign of the day before doom – The only Son of the King of heaven and earth and hell, with all the angels and archangels, in His company will go, on that day to the summit of Mount Zion to judge their deeds, both good and evil, for Adam’s impure children. Michael the Archangel will summon all the human beings to that great assembly. All the dead will arise; first, the apostles will arise, then the prophets and the confessors, the martyrs and the saints and the good people, then the virgins and penitents and in the end, baptized infants. The whole human race will be aged thirty on that day, with no one being older or younger. This is the age at which Adam was created and the age of Jesus when He was baptized. Then the King of Glory will arise with His final Cross on his shoulder in everybody’s presence. He will have traces of all the wounds of His Passion upon Him, so that all the incurable wounds and tortures, which they themselves inflicted upon Him, may be manifested to the Jews.

Hinduism

According to Kaala Jnaana written by the Hindu mystic, Veera Brahmam, Kali Yuga will last for 5000 years after Lord Krishna passes away, after which evil will spread throughout the world. Hindu legend states that at the end of kali yuga, Vishnu, the universal ruler will appear again under his form of the Kalki-avatara for doing away with the wicked and inaugurating a realm of righteousness and spirituality. This will be the Doomsday.

The signs of Doomsday are:

1. There will be a rain of fire. Following this a strange thing will happen. 20 feet tall humans will appear and claim to be Kalki. (this is in India). 2. A huge comet will be born in the south; several people will die due to this. 3. Mammary glands will be born to the males of Cow, Goat, etc. and people will get milk from them. 4. Tigers will disappear completely from the forests. 5. The Sun will appear like a green colored human being. 6. Moon will be seen on a new moon day. 7. Wealth will arrive from other countries to India and India will be very rich and powerful. 8. Stones will break and fly about like crows and eagles; Stone horses and chariots will start to run. 9. Blood and pus will flow out from stones. 10. It will rain blood.

Over the years, there have been many versions of these signs and you will find they differ when taken from different books, and this is one version of the signs of Doomsday in different religions.

Skeptics may find it interesting to know that even the laws of science support the fact that the world will come to an end. The second law of thermodynamics states that everything goes from order to disorder and eventually ends. It can be your body, house, earth’s magnetic field, extinction of species or the shrinking sun.

Whether all this is true or not and whether we choose to believe in all this or not, will depend entirely on each one of us. What we have reproduced here is just what has been written about in numerous books.

i am muslim..and i believe in islam…islam is for everyone..and i believe if all non muslim study about islam…they will know why they are here..what they are going to do on earth…and where they will go in the hereafter…trust me,..one thing..you believe Allah is with you…believe that Allah will help you…fear Allah..in your heart..and you will feel…what other muslim feel..may Allah bless you always…think about it…

Ritz@- try to help yourself, i think you haven’t learn your religion well, that’s why you saying this. All guys listen, in this article it is already been described that, Muslims are waiting for IMAM Mehdi, Christians for Return Of Christ, Budd for Buddha, Jews for Moses. Hindu for Krishna and all are pointing the same thing, if you try to research over the signs are given, you will find that once religion prediction is a consequence of another. Some have all signs described directly and some are need to be understand with strong mind. I m not saying that anyone is wrong. Every religion have same description but some have less or some have more. All are true with their respects. The reason behind this is just the difference of language, difference of geological are and editing of old peoples. But its true that all religion are just a branch of anyone one religion who covers all the preachings. My research makes me to conclude that every holy book describes that arrival of Muhammad on earth to preach people that god is one. But acc to Islam Name is Muhammad, acc to Buddha it is Maitreya, acc to Jews Jonah, acc to Hindu Malechha. this shows that the job was same but the language had divided the religion. As all religion describes the arrival of Muhammad , so why we don’t believe what he said “Allah is one and i m prophet and quran is allah’s book”. I m not trying to say anyone less or high. I m just saying just try to say that please do research over all religion, it will help you to decide the best way to Respect god and way to practice of GOD. Guys once again I m trying to say anyone less or high, do your self and decide.

Adil….. if all pointing to one…then why one must embrace Islam? Whatever religion one is…. the ultimate goal is the same. Just keep one’s religion to himself and what he believes. Please prove that all religion describes the arrival of Muhammad.

False …..Be it a Semetic Religions or Aryan relgions….prophet mohammad is prophecised…in every sacred books….look for ahmed deedat videos for support…he is the researcher in comparitive religions…andknowledgeable person and he is well above any bukhari or mufti or any ranks… if you have any doubts… ask people at mufti level…or else donot misguide anyone..
